26/09/2025 - Program  : 9:00 - Leon Rofagha “A discrimination measure under coarsening”Abstract: “Abstract. How does one evaluate the quality of a regression model’s predictions \(f(X_1),\ldots,f(X_n)\) under coarsening of the responses \(Y_1,\ldots,Y_n\)? A coarsening of a random variable is a random set containing said random variable.
